PORTLAND, Ore. — An Oregon sheriff has written Vice President Joe Biden to say his department won’t enforce any new gun laws it considers unconstitutional.
In his letter, Sheriff Tim Mueller of Linn County said politicians are “attempting to exploit the deaths of innocent victims” by supporting laws that would harm law-abiding Americans.
Mueller says he took an oath to support the Constitution, and laws preventing citizens from owning certain semi-automatic firearms and ammunition magazines would violate their rights.

BTTT
From the Grassroots, Patriots are rising up to oppose der 0berFuhrer emperor Baraq I.
There’s been another shooting, 2 dead, in Lexington college Kentucky.
I’m not a conspiracy theorist, but this is improbable. How many have there been total now?
If the states are supposedly not allowed to enforce Federal immigration law, then I guess that cant enforce Federal firearms laws either.
Good for him... I suspect other LEO’s will feel the same.
Linn County, Oregon joins Jackson County, Kentucky in declaring their opposition to further infringements of the right to keep and bear arms.
Good for Sheriff Tim Mueller. There will be many more, some publicly announcing and some will remain quiet, yert true to the constitution.
Thanks Red Steel.
If States and Counties openly and willfully defy Federal law what will Obama do?
Does he really think the military approves of him? What if he calls in Federal troops and the National Guard and the refuse to come?
What happens then?
There have been a rash of home invasions (robbery, murder, sometimes rape) of elderly white couples by black “yoots” recently, and I don’t see the MSM out screaming about this and making a pattern of it-they do very little reporting of it all, much less trying to tie it into an agenda.
Sauce for the goose . . .
I wish we had a man of his caliber as Sheriff of Hillsborough County, Florida.
Bump
I’m very familiar with Linn County and Albany, OR. Conservative, hard working people there. And now another reason to like it...Sheriff Mueller!
The salient point is none of the hinted proposals will change one thing that will make anyone safer or deter one mass shooting. The plan with all this hoopla is to get guns out of the hands of any citizens, period. The pols know the end game is coming. They wish to disarm as many of the public as they can because when the SHTF, these guys know they are going to be on the incoming side of the equation. That is why regardless of what Barry says about being unsure this will pass or the NRA saying they are pretty sure not much will pass, the probability of something draconian passing is favorable, I peg it at far better than 50-50.
Whether the law gets over turned or not, anyone who abides by any of these new laws is crazy. My advice is don’t do it. Register your guns or give them up willingly will eventually lead to your becoming one of the victims of a total government take over here...rather than of and by the people, this one will be of and by the politicians and their syncophants. Serfdom is coming for those who don’t resist. All IMHO.
Or polk county
Great idea. sanctuary cities for gun owners!!!
